Should I buy a 2008 chevy cobalt?

[Marissa Fergus]

I am 16 and I'm looking for a good reliable car. I found this 2008 chevy cobalt with around 138000 miles on it. Which is kinda weird for the year but it is only $3200. It comes from a more reputable dealer Gage Auto but I don't want to be scammed. Does anyone know if they are reliable with the amount of miles?

Thanks

I would try to find someone you know, that is experienced with cars to come along with you to the dealer and have them look at it just to be sure, as that is a lot of miles for a car. One thing you could ask is if it's been a ever day work car or has it been driven across the country on a road trip(or something along the lines).

The price is very good, for the year($6,000+ on kbb, for an LS), so I'm guessing the transmission could be in need of rebuilding.
